Q

endocytosis

A

type of active transport; moving materials into the cell from low to high; examples- pinocytosis and phagocytosis

17
Q

exocytosis

A

type of active transport; moving materials out of the cell from low to high; examples - hormones or waste leaving the cell

18
Q

phagocytosis

A

type of endocytosis; moving food/large particles into the cell from low concentration to high concentration

19
Q

pinocytosis

A

type of endocytosis; moving water/liquid into the cell from low to high concentration

20
Q

isotonic solution

A

dynamic equilibrium is established immediately; the concentration of solutes is equal on both sides of the cell; the cell stays the same; good for animal cells

21
Q

hypertonic solution

A

concentration of solutes is higher on the outside than on the inside of the cell; the cell will shrink; causes plasmolysis in plant cells- bad for both plant/animal cells

22
Q

hypotonic solution

A

concentration of solutes is lower on the outside than on the inside of the cell; the cell will swell - animals cells lyse/plant cells create turgor pressure - good for plant cells bad for animal cells
